Pernet Happenings

On April 13th, Pernet Family Health Service, Worcester-based family support organization, put on its inaugural Pernet Cup Curling Challenge at the Worcester Ice Center. This curling tournament was a fundraiser for Pernet’s programs. All funds raised went directly to Pernet's programs: Early Intervention, Family Support Services, Maternal, and Child Nursing, and Family and Community Development Programs. Over 75 individuals competed on 12 teams for the Pernet Cup, for most of these players it was their first time curling! The success of this event was made possible by its sponsors and 44 volunteers from Pernet Family Health Service's Board, the Petersham Curling Club, Marlborough Curling Club, and Blackstone Curling Club.

In all fairness, Pernet Family Health Service has been making several programs that will surely make their beneficiaries happy. That's really a huge thing, and I couldn't be happier because each and every member of Pernet Family Health Service is motivated by the idea that they are helping people. How I wish all people have that huge heart for other people and wouldn't think of their personal lives most of the time. Sometimes, we need to acknowledge the idea that we are also called to help others who are in need.
